He’ll dominate the news cycle for the weekend. There’s a reason he announced it at 12 PM Eastern Time on a Friday. What are people going to talk about? The WNBA? AFL? The World Cup Final? Nope. It’s LeBron’s Weekend. Again.

The Champ, The Custodian, and The Franchise predict playoff teams, attempt to explain the McDonald’s Ice Man, delineate the skill levels of people playing summer basketball, give their picks for end of the year awards, and talk about their new segment, “Get It Son.” The episode wraps up with Wildcard Time, a surprise guest appearance by Dana, a brief discussion about fantasy football, a recap of Dinner with Del Suggs, their favorite Michael Jordan, and NBA 2K11.

The Champ, The Custodian, and The Franchise discuss girls who have gotten pregnant or fat since high school, the NBA preseason, Gilbert Arenas’ faked injury, USC’s alleged NCAA infractions, summer basketball games, their fantasy football league, and Catland. The Freelancer guest stars during Wildcard Time, and two new segments premiere: Champ’s Impression Time and Custodian Interview Time.

The Champ, The Custodian, and The Franchise discuss the NBA Preseason, and going to a Wizards game. “True or False” makes its glorious return, and The Franchise introduces a new segment (replete with a new theme song) called “Buy or Sell.” As always, the episode concludes with Wildcard Time.

In an echoey (and short) edition of the Paints in the Point Podcast, The Champ, The Custodian, and The Franchise discuss the depth of the Lakers, Ben Folds’ new album, and The Freelancer guest stars in Wildcard Time.
